Hi Erinanne, welcome to permies!

For anyone considering this PDC, I can wholeheartedly endorse Brandon as an instructor; he's extremely knowledgeable and very engaging.

There are very early ferries from Sidney(starting @ 5:20 IIRC) and Crofton(starting @ 6:30 IIRC).

Direct from Vancouver, I don't think you can even be there before 1PM; you could do much better by taking the 7AM to Sidney and *maybe* make it onto the 8:45 departure for Saltspring, but 9AM to the farm would still be out of the question.
